Ah, the Twilight Zone marathon. It’s become such a fixture of each New Year’s Eve. Can you think of a better way to ring out the old and ring in the new than with Rod Serling? Show Sure, there are drawbacks to watching the Zone this way. The ads and the edits sometimes seem as if they’ve been engineered by Talky Tina. It’s best to watch the show on disc, frankly. But there’s something comforting about the tradition of the NYE marathon. Plus, it’s great to all be watching at the same time and interacting over social media. So let’s get to the big question: What will they be showing this year? I know some fans like to be surprised, but most fans appreciate a heads up. So, courtesy of the friendly folks at Syfy (who were nice enough to share the lineup with me ahead of time), here’s the schedule for the 2021-2022 marathon: 104 episodes out of TZ’s 156. Times shown are EST, btw: Friday, December 31, 2021 2:00am
– The Parallel Saturday, January 1, 2022 12:15am – Person or Persons Unknown Sunday, January 2, 2022 12:00am – To Serve Man Please note that many episodes won’t be starting on the hour and half-hour! Can’t say I’m crazy about that. It’s sure to confuse some people. And although this enables Syfy to include more episodes over a shorter block of time, I can’t see how it’s possible to do without cutting more scenes than they already do. Also, they’ve scheduled episodes from every season, but there’s an emphasis this time out on Seasons 3 and 5, as well as nine episodes from the lesser-known Season 4, when TZ shifted from a half-hour to an hour. Would I have made some different choices? Absolutely. Some of the Season 5 picks, for example, are hardly the cream of the TZ crop (and two of the Season 4 picks are on my list of least-favorite TZs). But there are, of course, some real gems. As always, I’ll be live-tweeting quotes and facts over on my Twitter page, and sharing some fun info on my Facebook page. Hope we get a chance to interact at some point.
